Help reading Serial EEPROM |
Posted: Sat Jan 03, 2004 9:06 pm |

Wow, first time to this group and already I'm looking for help with code.
My problem is that I can write a Floating point number to a serial EEPROM but cannot read back any reliable data that makes sense.
The hardware is part of a datalogger I'm working on and the serial EEPROM has been tested using inteter number and works fine- I believe that I can write a floating point number to the EEPROM but cannot read the hex values I expect to see.
I've distilled the code and I would be most appreciative if anyone can offer me inisghts to my problem.
Thanks, Al
PCM Version 2.693 (yes it is old!)

Output Data on serial port:

Wr 48
Wr CC
Wr CC
data= 100.59
Wr 85

Wr 32
This is the serial data read - bears litlle resemblance to the written data
Rd 85
Rd 85
Rd 85 <- data 100.59?
Rd 49
Rd 33 <-
Rd 32
Rd 85
Rd 85
Rd 4B
Rd 38
Rd 4F |

I may be mistaken, but you seem to be incrementing your address within the EEPROM by one instead of 4 (since each float requires 4 bytes).

Thank you very much Steve, I thought I had taken the 4 byte conversion into account but not so.
The program works and just in time- it's -23.4 degrees C outside and now I can start recording my temperature sensors.
Thanks again and Seasons Greetins.
